Persian Love Cake is a soft and dense cake that originates in Iran. Legend has it that this cake was invented by young woman in love with a Persian Prince. To try and win his affection, she baked him this magical Persian Love Cake. Whether it worked or not is unknown, but the good news is the recipe was recorded for us to make and enjoy forever more!Rose water is not my usually favourite flavour - I tend to find it too perfume-like in most recipes. So instead of using rose water in the cake, I used Lancewood's Turkish...

Summer is almost over but there's still time to enjoy a fresh, fruity dessert like this one! This Mango and Yoghurt pudding is incredibly easy to make, but is an absolute showstopper too.

The layers are made up of Lancewood Double Cream Yoghurt (a staple I always have in my fridge!), cream, fresh mango and soft brown sugar. Adding the cream to the yoghurt makes it that much more rich and decadent, but if you're in...

Gingerbread is one of those flavours that is synonymous with Christmas, and it also happens to be one of my favourite flavours to bake with! These cupcakes are light, fluffy and loaded with fragrant gingerbread spices. The rich cream cheese icing (made with Lancewood cream cheese) is the perfect topping, and a mini gingerbread man adds some crunch and a dose of cuteness. This is definitely one to add to the holiday baking list!Note: If you don't have a mini gingerbread man cutter, a star or Christmas tree look equally cute. Or simply use some festive sprinkles if you prefer!Gingerbread fans,...

A Pavlova is always a showstopper, but this Turkish Delight Pavlova is on another level! The filling is made with the new Lancewood Turkish Delight double cream yoghurt which gives it the most beautiful pink colour and dreamy texture, without being too sweet. I've used dried rosebuds, pomegranate rubies and pistachio's to decorate it but you could also use raspberries, rose petals I've shared some tips on how to make the perfect pavlova below.

I just love the simplicity of a self-saucing pudding, and this Granadilla one is my favourite! It's made with Lancewood's Low Fat Granadilla Yoghurt, which adds a delicious fruity tang to the pudding and keeps the batter nice and moist too. It may seem slightly counter-intuitive but making a self-saucing pudding actually involves pouring a sauce on top of your batter before baking. In the oven, the batter rises and the liquid layer sinks to the bottom resulting in a soft and spongy pudding (with a crunchy crust I might add) and a tangy, syrupy sauce at the bottom. I prefer...

If it's an easy dessert you're looking for, it doesn't get much better than this! These Cheat's Créme Brûlée's are made with chocolate and yoghurt, and require no baking! Amazingly, when you add melted chocolate to Lancewood's Plain Double Cream yoghurt it not only sweetens it but creates a creamy, custardy texture. Then just add a flavour of your choice (vanilla, orange or lemon zest, a pinch of cinnamon or dash of liqueur) then top with a crunchy brûléed sugar topping and you have a simple yet sophisticated dessert! I initially tested the recipe with white chocolate (and a splash of...

Biscuits & Cookies, Brownies & Bars, Recipes / 30.08.2022

I love making cookie bars! With a texture that lies somewhere between a brownie and a cookie, they are deliciously soft and chewy with a crisp crust. Another reason I love them is they are fair bit quicker to make than cookies, as there is no dough-chilling or rolling required. Simply press the mixture into a pan and bake! These particular cookie bars are flavoured with creamy peanut butter and loaded with chocolate chips. Eat them warm with ice cream for dessert, or snack on them just as they are. There really is no time of day that's not ideal...
